CMake 2.8.5-rc2 ready for testing!

Since we switched to git, and a new workflow, we’re expecting to do more frequent releases. Because of that, our release candidate phases will be shorter than they have been historically. So, if you want to test this out and ask for a fix, do it soon, or hold your peace till the next release! I expect we will finalize the 2.8.5 release within the next week.

Following is the list of changes in this release. Since we switched to git, this list is now the ‘git log’ one line summary written by the named CMake developers.

Please try this version of CMake on your projects and report any issues to the list or the bug tracker.

Happy building!-Dave

Changes in CMake 2.8.5-rc2 (since 2.8.5-rc1)—————————————————————————–Bill Hoffman (6): Fix a memory leak. Fix for bug#10798. VS10 did not append -I flags with COMPILE_FLAGS prop. Append and do not clobber CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS in the test. Use bin tree for inclues to avoid -I with spaces in the path. One more try. Use full path by default, and relative on broken compilers. Fix for bug #11927, external project git clone step always runs vs10.

Will Dicharry (7): HDF5 high level library is a find COMPONENT now. Add logic for CMake built HDF5 install. Use CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR to locate FindPackageHandleStandardArgs. Use HDF5_FOUND to control autoconf and CMake built FindHDF5. Fix for bug 11752, mixed debug and release libraries. FindHDF5 ensures good link lines when libraries are duplicated. Remove unnecessary mark_as_advanced from FindHDF5.
